DODGE CITY, Kan. – Dodge City Raceway Park has shifted its open practice to a tentative date of Saturday, May 23, rather than the previously scheduled date of May 16.
Additionally, with the May 23-24 NOW600 and POWRi Midget events at Garden City canceled, the NOW600 Micro Sprint Brandon Barbo Classic set for Friday, May 22, atop the seventh-mile Little DCRP clay oval has been canceled.
Following the tentative practice session set for May 23, pending further developments, Dodge City Raceway Park will now kick off the season with a URSS vs. DCRP Sprint Car showdown along with a full slate of championship chase action including IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sport Modifieds, IMCA Stock Cars and IMCA Hobby Stocks on Saturday, June 6.
In an additional schedule adjustment, the seventh annual Sport Modified Mayhem North vs. South Duel will now take place in conjunction with the Lubbock Wrecker Service DCRP Sprint Car Nationals on Aug. 20-22. The Thursday portion of the event will serve as a practice night for the IMCA Modifieds with heats and qualifiers on Friday and then the $1,500-to-win main event on Saturday.
Sprint Cars will be in action during all three nights of the Lubbock Wrecker Service DCRP Sprint Car Nationals with a $3,000 winner’s share up for grabs in the Aug. 22 event championship feature.
Originally slated to run in conjunction with the DCRP Sprint Car Nationals, the eighth annual Modified Stampede has been shifted off of the Aug. 20-22 date due to scheduling conflicts. The track is actively searching for an alternative date for the event.
The Aug. 15 event that was the originally scheduled IMCA Sport Modified Mayhem event will now serve as a Prelude to Mayhem with the IMCA Sport Modifieds accompanied by IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Stock Cars and IMCA Hobby Stocks.
